Title: Generation of short optical pulses using strongly complex coupled dfb lasers
Inventor: O'SULLIVAN MAURICE S
IPC: G02F1/365
Filed: 1999-11-25
Abstract: A compact source capable of generating continuously tunable high frequency microwave radiation and short optical pulses is invented. It includes a laser structure having two lasers formed on the same substrate which simultaneously operate at different longitudinal modes. Each laser has a complex coupled grating. The lasers have a common active medium and shared optical path and provide mutual light injection into each other which results in generation of a beat signal. The beat frequency is defined by spacing between the laser modes and may be continuously tuned by current injection and/or temperature variation. To form a train of short optical pulses, the beat signal is either further sent to a saturable absorber followed by a semiconductor optical amplifier, or sent directly into an optical compressor. An embodiment where N short pulse optical trains, each at frequency f, are combined so as to interleave and form one short pulse optical train at frequency Nf, is also provided.

Patent CA-2321255-A1 (CA)
Inventor: COX INGEMAR J
IPC: H04N7/167
Filed: 1999-05-20
Abstract: Data is protected from unauthorized copying by rescrambling an unauthorized version of the data, but descrambling an authorized version of the data. This is done using a trigger signal. The trigger signal is embbeded into the data to form watermarked data. The possibly protected data or watermarked data is converted to possibly usable data by extracting the trigger signal and checking the value as show in the figure. The possibly protected data is passed through a descrambler (30), where the trigger signal, if present, is extracted. A descrambling key and a descrambling algorithm (40) are applied to the possibly protected data if the trigger signal is present, but not applied to the possibly protected data if the trigger signal is not present. One property of the trigger signal is that it is preserved through signal transformation, such as one or more compression, decompression, analog to digital conversion, and digital to analog conversion. As a result of this property the trigger signal can be detected in either scrambled or descrambled data.

Title: Arrangement for absorption of energy released on impact
Inventor: SCHLUSEMANN THOMAS
IPC: B61D15/06
Filed: 2000-10-02
Abstract: An arrangement for absorption of the energy of impact for road or rail bound vehicles contains an elongated insert (6) - in the form of a rigid lever or as part of a lever of length r and featuring two end faces (10, 11), the first end face (10) being attached to the long side of a section component (3) and the second face (11) coupled via a collision component (12) to an impact area (9) projecting out from the section component (3) in such a manner that a force of impact acting on the impact area (9), while displacing the collision component (12) in the direction of the force of impact, effects a rotational movement (D) of the insert (6) about a predetermined point of rotation (P) in the section component (3) and local bending of the section component (3) at the point of rotation (P). As a result of the arrangement according to the invention the section component (3) is bent out of the direction of the force of impact, so that the force of impact acting on its cross-section causes the section component (3) to bend in a continuous manner and the force of impact is absorbed.
